As Monsanto is the primary proponent of this "Frankenstyle"
modification in the food supply and prime opponent of the Sanders
Amendment one must be reminded of an earlier Monsanto "trust me" --
Agent Orange. Vietnam estimates 400,000 people were killed or maimed,
and 500,000 children born with birth defects as a result of the use of
Agent Orange. That count does not include members of the various
militaries that were exposed to this "trust me" defoliant.Nearly 40 years removed from the last Monsanto "trust me" fiasco in
Vietnam and 71 senators have just voted to "trust them--Monsanto" again
regarding GMO. It would appear Senators in Washington need to be
reminded of two things. 1.) Grandma's homily of "Once burned. Twice
learned." And 2.) Vote the will of your constituents versus big
industry.RC LLOYD
